Calculating Networkdays using two dates

Hi,

I have a start date and a finish date and i would like to calculate the number of working days between the start date and end date.  At the moment, in the script i have [finish date] - [start date] as Days which give me a count, however this is not excluding the weekend and therefore the number is incorrect.

i have also tried networkdays([finish date], [start date]) as Days but this just gives me a 0 and 1 flags.

Does anyone know the syntax that i need to use?

networkdays function should be correct, but try first parameter start date, second end date.

I guess he means just to change the order of the parameters: networkdays([start date], [finish date]).
